"The Economics of Money, Banking and Financial Markets brings a fresh perspective to today's major questions surrounding financial policy. Influenced by his term as Governor of the Federal Reserve, Frederic Mishkin offers students a unique viewpoint and informed insight into the monetary policy process, the regulation and supervision of the financial system, and the internationalization of financial markets. Easy-to-follow graphics, crisp definitions, and a thoroughly accessible text highlight the applications of economics, making them relatable through everyday examples and concerns. The thirteenth edition of this bestseller provides more rigor and clarity through internationally relevant topics and examples." --
